Product Details

Everything you need to know — features, specs, fitment, and answers to the most common questions.

All-metal expansion body

Steel construction grips the back of the drywall — no crumbling plastic, no pull-through under load.

Mount where studs aren't

Puts shelves, TVs, bars, and rails exactly where you need them instead of where the framing dictates.

Removable and reusable fastener

The machine screw backs out for hardware changes while the anchor stays set in the wall.

Lifetime warranty — no receipt

Any anchor that fails under its normal working load is replaced free.

How much weight will they hold in drywall?
Metal expansion bolts substantially outperform plastic anchors because they clamp the back of the board. For heavy items, use multiple anchors and spread the load — and anything supporting a person should still hit framing.
What about warranty?
Lifetime warranty. If it fails under normal use we replace it — no receipt, no questions.
When do orders go out?
Orders before 2pm ET ship same day from Columbus, OH. Free standard shipping on orders $49+.

TV mounts on drywall where studs don't cooperate
Mounted floating shelves and a soundbar where the studs were nowhere near where I needed them. These expansion bolts locked into half-inch drywall solid — loaded the shelves with books and nothing moved. Way beyond plastic anchors.

Standard fix for towel bars and grab rails
Apartment turnovers mean re-hanging towel bars that tenants ripped out of plastic anchors. These metal expansion bolts grab the back of the board and don't pull through. Haven't had a callback on one yet.

Strong hold, drill the right size hole
Hung a coat rack and a mirror. First one I drilled the pilot too small and fought it — follow the size guidance and they set easily and hold hard. Much more confidence-inspiring than the cone anchors I'd used before.
